Chapter 2173: Chapter 1556: Strange Matters (2)

Most importantly, the thousands of Profound Immortal Fierce Beasts around them, they are now silent, each seeming to be in slumber, perceiving something. But who knows when they might suddenly awaken?!

Their existence is a huge threat.

The battlefield is moving away from the group of beasts, as if neither side wants to disturb them.

Li Zhirui hangs far behind, knowing that generally, there is no chance to see a ’Golden Immortal’ battle, because they reside in another layer of Void Chaos.

Perhaps only now, one has just broken through, and the other is a Pseudo Golden Immortal, allowing such a spectacle to be seen.

When Dao Wei and the Golden Immortal Fierce Beast clashed, they quickly entered an intense battle state, with each move aimed at taking the opponent’s life.

But no one seemed to hold a significant advantage; both sides were unexpectedly evenly matched.

Rumble——

When the two ’Golden Immortals’ battled, the surrounding Chaos Qi was cleared by the powerful impact.

But outside the battlefield in the Void, Chaos Qi continuously surged up waves, brewing some terrifying disaster unbeknownst!

The two are indifferent to it, but Li Zhirui is terrified, for he is amidst it now, and if a disaster truly erupts, he might be the first victim.

He is ready to retreat into space at any moment, to avoid being affected.

...

As time passes, while they were evenly matched, the Golden Immortal Fierce Beast gradually gained the upper hand.

Dao Wei, possibly due to the fading effect of the Spiritual Objects, began to decline in strength. Under the beast’s relentless advance, he became more bedraggled, and the injuries on his body increased.

If no accident occurs, this will likely be the outcome.

Dao Wei realizes this, unwilling to accept that after risking so much and consuming extremely precious Spiritual Objects, this would be the result; he refuses to accept it.

For this reason, he intends to desperately attempt to turn the tables!

Unknown what Secret Technique he used, his entire body became extremely large, like a black hole, frantically absorbing the surrounding Chaotic Spiritual Energy. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

In an instant, he seemed to restore to his peak state.

But this was actually the deadly blow Dao Wei had prepared!

With a bang, all Mana within him erupted, a flame seemingly capable of destroying everything, sprayed toward the beast.

Sizzle——

The flame wherever it passed even burned the spatial barrier thin.

This flame struck a shield, with a crash, the flame splattered in all directions, fundamentally unable to break the Golden Immortal Fierce Beast’s defense!

"The battle is over."

Seeing this, Li Zhirui knew there was no need to continue fighting; victory and defeat had been decided.

So he chose to turn around and leave early to avoid being targeted by the Golden Immortal Fierce Beast.

"Trying to escape?! Leave it for me!"

Before he completely left the battlefield, he heard a cold laugh from the beast.

As for Dao Wei’s eventual outcome, it all depended on his own abilities.

Originally, Li Zhirui thought his entanglement with him ended here, but unexpectedly, soon after, he got involved again!

However, this is a future matter, to be left unmentioned.

After leaving, Dao Wei was captured again, not managing to escape successfully, and this time the beast learned from the previous experience, using not only a big chain to bind but also multiple small chains to pierce through Dao Wei’s body.

"Ah ah ah..."

This torture was very painful for him; he couldn’t help but let out shrill and agonized screams.

Yet, to the Golden Immortal Fierce Beast, these were melodious sounds, making it want to continue tormenting him to vent its own anger.

"A mere Profound Immortal, thinking that with some Spiritual Objects and Secret Techniques, he could be my match? Dream on! Now I’ll let you truly feel the power of a Golden Immortal!"

But soon, its expression changed.

Because Dao Wei once again escaped strangely, disappearing without a trace, even if it wanted to recapture him, it couldn’t find where he was.

"Damn! How did he escape?!" The Golden Immortal Fierce Beast was very puzzled, not detecting any abnormal moves before he left.

Simultaneously, a hint of regret grew in its heart; had it known, it wouldn’t have tormented him but directly killed him, thus eliminating his chance to escape.

Regrettably, realizing now, it’s too late; he already fled without a trace.

...

Having long left the battlefield, Li Zhirui naturally didn’t know that so much occurred after his departure, as he continued to roam in Chaos.

At the same time, he pleasantly discovered that the previously riotous Chaotic Fierce Beasts have now returned to normal.

It seems that indeed, the breakthrough of the Golden Immortal Fierce Beast was what caused their abnormality.

As for the specific reason behind this, Li Zhirui did not intend to delve into it.

Just as he was about to release Qing Si from space to continue exploring the Void together, a sudden unexpected situation arose.

That was Dao Wei, who battled the Golden Immortal Fierce Beast earlier, appeared not far behind him!

This person is still alive?! Li Zhirui was very shocked, completely unable to fathom how this person escaped the Golden Immortal Fierce Beast’s pursuit or found him?

With his mind full of unanswered questions, Dao Wei rushed up, loudly questioning, "Why didn’t you join forces with me earlier? Just with your help, there’s a great chance of slaying that Golden Immortal Fierce Beast!"

"Who are you? Do we know each other? Whether that beast can be slain or not, what does it have to do with me? Why should I risk helping you?" Li Zhirui’s pupils slightly dilated, never having encountered such a puzzling situation before, his face bearing an expression of wide-eyed astonishment.

"You!"

Dao Wei, possibly never having received such treatment, tightly furrowed his brow, his face dark and appearing very angry.

"I don’t know what method you used to find my trail, or maybe this encounter is merely coincidental, but I hope this is the last time!"

Li Zhirui warned with a serious face, "Otherwise, don’t blame me for taking action!"

After saying this, he transformed into a pure white light and vanished, fleeing towards the depths of the Void.

And during his flight, he immediately mobilized the Purification Principle to the fullest extent, using the Power of Purification to cleanse himself completely inside and out!

This way, no matter what method Dao Wei used, it would be erased by this power.

"Hmm? Why is the mark left on him gone!"

Originally planning to pursue, Dao Wei suddenly froze, a look of disbelief on his face.

"How did he accomplish this as an early-stage Profound Immortal!"

This made him very curious, wanting to investigate and know the answer.

But now, not knowing which corner of the Void he’s in, even with the desire to understand, he’s left with no means to learn.

...

Li Zhirui was actually quite worried about having an additional shadow behind him, but thankfully, after some time passed, this did not occur.

Assured there was no problem, he once again entered space.

"Jiu!"

At first, Qing Si was very pleased, but then immediately asked anxiously, "Why did you come in? Is it because of some danger? Have the Chaotic Fierce Beasts become even more savage?"

"No, I just came in simply to check, nothing like what you’re thinking happened." Li Zhirui said, somewhat amused.

"That’s good, that’s good."

The next moment, he quickly reacted, asking again, "Jiu, has the Void calmed down already?"

"Yes, but I plan to stay in space for a while to help the Five Elements and the Devil Spirits resolve some cultivation issues."

The Five Elements haven’t yet achieved any results in their interpretation of transformation, and he couldn’t help but intervene.

As for guiding the Devil Spirits, it’s to reward them for caring for these Spiritual Objects over the years.
